Svvninr Gllami Qiatnrg Sailing, sailing as we go Trying to conquer every foe. The class of 1926 has complet- i ed her H. S. voyage and is now ready to set sail on the high seas of Life. ln order that her voy- age and the accomplishments thereof should not be forgotten the passengers appointed one to write a brief history.

At the end of our first year's voyage a greater test than ever was put before us. XVe were each put in a boat by ourself and required to row past the Algebra Rocks, to overcome the currents around Lat-Inn, to struggle through the English Channel and to do our own cooking on the way. In the second year of our voyage we had for our captains Mr. liann. Mr.
